Unfortunately, I don't have the OMT or the feedhorn. Does it have to be specifically from 9200 package or can I use one like this - HughesNet Horn LNB FSS 19.7-20.2GHz 1500825-0005 1500658-0002 1500914 Hughes Net The seller that sold this to me (jeneanenjohn on eBay) has very bad communications skills and it took forever to get replies to my messages. He apparently has 6 more of these, so, if you can get hold of him, you should be able to get it.

He does also have the OMT and the feedhorn but... it's a pain communicating with him. So....

Of course, if you have a suitable feedhorn/OMT - let me know!


You must consider yourself very lucky to have obtained those and get them delivered safely .... i had an order open with those people for the very same items and got know where with them, just excuses after excuses, ended up having to put a complain in. They even told me about the eight or so they had about 4 months ago and i even replied straight back to take the job lot off them but communications were appalling and in the end just gave up on them. Whilst your still fresh to them CJ you might want to put an offer in to them for the rest of them ..... they will all go i'm sure to us forum members.

As for the OMT and feed horn, not 100% necessary . Most now just use one lnb on Vertical to catch the feeds, Newsnet etc and use a XMW feed like this one....
Again, well done. Good catch.

Alex, Both my OMTs, one from the 18.3-18.8 LNB, and one from the 19.7-20.2 LNB have the same serial number on the OMT, so it appears they are identical.

Can't tell you about the feedhorns, as one came without one, and one I gave to VS.

The seller you got them from is the same as the one who supplied my 18.3-18.8 LNB.

Llew is correct ..the OMTs are the same for both units ..
therefore will take either feedhorn ...and tbh ...the frequencies in use are close enough that the 19.7 feed will work just fine..on the 18.3ghz

@John - I am glad I am not the only one with communications issues with these people! I actually tried to obtain these items a good few months ago but I felt like I was dealing with a black hole, with only occasional replies.

@Vipersan - I paid $110 for both delivered. No import charges. It was a very hard job talking to these people, so I didn't want to push. I already asked them to send me the OMT and the feedhorn along with the LNBs several times but... only the LNBs arrived.

$55 a pop is not at all bad ..I guess that is plus postage ?(ignore the plus postage...just re-read your reply)
so 55$ inc postage ...even better..
;)
If anyone Is brave enough to try an purchase the rest ...and sell em on ...
Like I said I'm in for 1 ...and I've no doubt the rest will sell easily...
I'd take the job on myself ..but have just shelled out around £400 to buy a pocker sig gen and analyser ...so am a bit skint atm ...
doh!

It was $110 all-in, including delivery.

To be honest, I've lost the will to live with this seller - he's very unpredictable. I even spoke to both of them (him and the wife) a few months ago on separate occasions to get a move on but with no luck. If anyone wants to contact them - feel free!

The feedhorn that I linked to seems to be oval, rather than round - is that normal?

The oval feed is for the 19.7 ghz feed...
The shape is a reflection of the dish intended for it's mounting ..and nothing more ..
It will work just fine ...though not a perfect illumination match for our dishes ..
I tend to mount these with the longer axis ..vertically..

pity you didn't buy the lot Alex ..
You could have perhaps sold them on here ..at a small profit ..and got yours for free..??

Ha ha, i thought it was just me they didn't like Alex, it really is a shame that it's them that's got the goodies as they were really a ball ache to deal with. The oval feeds were designed to be used on the matched dish / feed combination in use for that service.
